Just bought it today after a long time looking for it! (Pericoapa rules!). I think it's the first game I buy this year (the last one was Tales of Symphonia, my favorite game ever).

I heard that this was a good RPG, and since the Cube doesn't have many games of this kind, I decided to check it out. :anime:

I actually found this new at my local (http://216.130.188.200/cgi-bin/ezlclk.fcgi?id=9816)Game Quest for $20! It must have been sitting on those shelves for too long! Good thing I was there to pick it up! :)

This should hold me over until We Love Katamari comes out! :D

Only games I plan on buying this month are X-Men Legends 2 and Burnout Revenge.

I'll also get Marvel Nemesis and Ultimate Spider-Man, but those will both be free since I will be reviewing them.

i got shining tears. it might mess w/ my school work though. its so good i sat and played 10 hours straight(no bathrooms breaks, no eating, no nothing). and the most ironic part is i only completed about 7 missions(each like 15 mins long) the rest of the time i spent on exploring the possibilities of forging and having certain skills.

i also plan on getting x-men legends 2(yay nightcrawler has swords now:D )

A few games that are coming out I'll put on my Christmas list. However, there is one game I must get at the end of the month:

Sly Cooper 3!!!!!:D

It's my favorite game series along with Crash Bandicoot and Jak & Daxter.:D I can't wait to go up against a 50-foot tall Carmelita Fox! THAT will be weird!:eek: :D

Oh, I saw at my local Gamestop a copy of the original Legaia RPG for the PS1. Was that any good? If so, I may want to pick that up. Oh, and what about the sequel for the PS2?

I bought King of Fighters: Maximum Impact Maniax (Xbox) yesterday, and I'm surprised that the gameplay is kept mostly unchanged from transition to 3D. I wonder if SNK Playmore knew what they were getting themselves into when they included the picture option, all I've taken so far are a bunch of perverted pics :p .

An EB employee bugged me about it. He has it and he wasn't too impressed with it. He prefers X over X-2. He says it's like "Charlie's Angels".

He tends to bug me everytime I see him. It's all in good fun, though.

I should have gotten X before X-2. Next time I go, I have a gut feeling he'll tell me, "I told you so!!"

I should have gotten X before X-2. Next time I go, I have a gut feeling he'll tell me, "I told you so!!"Actually I think the Ultimate ending to X-2 is better than X...they really don't playout the Charlies Angels thing, they make strike two similar poses at one or two events in the game, but other than that i's not even remotely related. However X-2 isn't no cake walk, the Via Infinanto is the hardest challenge in the entire series

Besides pretty much all the dresspheres have references from past games...I mean Rikku weilds numerious swords that belong to Auron, Yuna weilds Tidus's sword, Yuna's Dark Night dressphere is Cecil's armor, etc.

and to keep in theme with the thread, I got Monkey Island 3 and Resident Evil 0....for a combined total of 20 bucks...

Woah! Hurrah for Gamestops. My friend and I found three copies of Persona 2 in our surrounding area. 2 copies at one store, 1 copy at another. Needless to say, I snagged one and so did he. Not to mention a Gamestop employee bought the other one. That makes me a happy panda.

Woah again! Could it be? A new copy of Nocturne? Yes. Yes it is.

Oh, and you know, being cheap rules.

Not wanting to severely overspend, I'm gonna hold off on Radiata Stories.

The only game I'm looking forward to right now is We Love Katamari. Although I'm debating on even purchasing the Jak II and III since they're $20 each. But definitely We Love Katamari this month.

Even though I'm still waiting for the big Sly Cooper 3 game to come out next week, I saw something today at Circuit City that I may get later this week: Star Wars: KOTOR(PC). Now, before I blow $20 on it, I need to know if it's any good.

Please let me know.:)

Noukon

KotOR is excellent. Its sequel isn't quite up to snuff, but the original is a classic, and probably one of the best Star Wars games ever made.

Well, I haven't received the games yet, and it's now October, but I guess it counts since my money was drained from me in September. I pre ordered Capcom Classic Collections and ordered Kingdom Under Fire: Heroes. Normally, it would take about 3 days for these games to arrive, but it's been a week now and they haven't come yet. And since it's the weekend, I'll probably have to wait till Monday to get them. Man, and I was really looking forward to playing those two on my days off.
